A smart bookmark is used to add a search to the address bar. This can be + useful if you prefer to use a specific search engine regularly.

+ + + Add a smart bookmark + +

Perform a search using the search engine that you want to add.

+
+ +

Bookmark the page, replacing the search term with %s + in the URL.

+
+
+ + +

For example, if you want to be able to search the GNOME user help, start + by doing a test search such as for "epiphany". The resulting URL will look + like https://help.gnome.org/search?q=epiphany. To + add the "bookmark", replace + epiphany with %s when bookmarking the page so + that the Address looks like + https://help.gnome.org/search?q=%s. You may also want to use + a Title such as Search GNOME help.

+

When you next start typing in the address bar, you will see Search + GNOME help where your browsing history + would normally be shown. Click it to submit the search.

+
+ +

Apart from search engines, you can also use smart bookmarks for other + queries, such as searching an online show for a product.
